Marahild is a lone wanderer and friend of nature, as well as the little sister of Stigander. She fears the coming of the war between Northrim and the Achaean Empire, as she feels certain that, no matter who is the victor, the wild homeland she so loves will be changed forever.

Biography

Marahild was born in Northrim, near the border of Imperial territory. Although still very young, she soon began fighting in a small band of rebels called the Wolfpack, who raided Imperial supply routes to disrupt their influence on Northrim. Eventually, however, the Wolfpack went their separate ways, including Marahild's brother. Not knowing where to go, Marahild wandered the wilderness, as she always felt at home in the presence of nature. This did not go unnoticed by a wood elf she had fought alongside in the Wolfpack, and she invited Marahild to join her merry band of wood elves. It is not often a human gets such an opportunity, and Marahild gladly accepted. With them, she was given much opportunity to learn of the spirits they revered: trees, streams, stones, animals – all of nature. She even learned to communicate with animals as only the vidralfar, and precious few others, can.

After a few years of traveling, partying, and occasionally raiding Imperial caravans with the merry vidralfar, Marahild said her goodbyes to the nomadic elves when she heard of a war brewing between Northrim and the Achaean Empire. While searching for her now-lost brother, Marahild traveled toward the southern border of Northrim once more, hoping to learn more details about the coming war and the plans of the various Northern tribes and clans. It is there she meets one Sir Tom Drake, and her life will never be the same...

Description

Lithe and strong, with a soft-featured face and tanned skin, Marahild is very much a wild woman. Her blonde hair, so long it reaches the small of her back, is usually braided. Her blue-green eyes stand out against the green body paint she often wears for additional camouflage.

She often keeps the company of her companion Moonlight, a young, stark white wolfdog with icy blue eyes.

Personality

There is nothing Marahild values higher than her freedom. She enjoys wandering the wilderness by herself, as she enjoys the spirits of nature more than the company of Men. It has been many years since she mingled in human civilization, and she feels bound by no law or regulation, nor does she feel required to show respect to any figure of authority. The only authority she respects is that of nature and the gods, particularly Freyja. She is a woman of few words: when she speaks, she is terse and frank, immediately addressing her point. This makes her appear rude in civilization, although she doesn't mean to be... often.

Appearances

Marahild is a main character in The Prophecy of the Six. She has appeared in Knightfall and Into the North and will appear in many future publications.
